I used the mbx4 wing kit. On the traxxas forum somebody posted a nice how to on how to mount the wing to a stock body tower. Dont hav ehte link saved anymore tho. http://www.crispycrittershobbyshop.c...cat=479&page=1
And as for a body, they dont have one for the extended truck that I know of besides the stock traxxas one so what you will have to do it mount it in the rear with the stock holes and in the front make new ones. Easiest way to do that is put a dab of paint on both the top of the front body posts and then center the body and put it down. When you lift the body off the truck you got nice little paint marks of were to put the holes.

proline make an extended crowd pleazer body for the 3.3 chassis revos.
Gearing, leave it stock 2-speed, leave it stock Later after you get comfortable driving on a track you can fine tune things better. Fine tuning now will not make you a good driver, faster.

A bolt on wing kit is available from Tekno R/c (www.teknorc.com), and if you want to go a different route, DPP Racing (http://dppracing.com) makes a metal plate that screws into the body mount holes in your shock tower, and you screw the MBX-5 Wing kit to it. The extended bodies specifically made for extended revos so far are the Traxxas stock body(www.traxxas.com) and the Proline extended CP 2.0 for the revo 3.3. (www.pro-lineracing.com) Hope this helps some.

the teckno wing mount IMO is gayer then 2 grown men on 1 motorcycle. Takes the strength away from the body posts, they will bend after some big crashes. The mbx4 is just drilling 4 holes and putting a screw through it and a nut on the other side and tightning it down. Shouldnt have any more then 5 minutes if all the hardware is in front of you.

Wings: I use the Mugen MBX5 Wing with a TTR 160mm Wing. Holds up well. I have used the Tenko adjustable wing mount and went back to the Mugen. The tenko mount,you can not adjust the body height. But the Mugen mount does take some drilling in order to mount it right. There are many how-to's on that. I am sure you can find them all at the Traxxas Revo forums.
Bodies: Proline CP 2.0, Jconcepts, Majestic-They say the MT body will fit the 2.5 and 3.3. But many people are using the LSP body for the 3.3. Extreme racing(they make the CF throttle mount) has a low profile body for the 2.5 and 3.3.

Those Crimefighters won't do well at LH. Mr. Tune said something this weekend that should help: "There are only 2 sets of tires you need at LH: A set of boas (c comp) and a set of (MT or MTR) bowties. They'll last you over a year."
Listen to the man! lol

Mine didnt do to bad. I dont remember ever racing on blue groove before. So it was nothing but a learning curve all weekend for me.
But they did well. I would have to say that the boa's had alittle edge. But then I was seeing guys run holeshots and they were holding up just fine. For the hell of it,I might go out and get a set of C's to go along with my holeshots.
